ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MINUTES TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 18,2003 4 -- ~-- . OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE UPDATE Director Moore stated the City had eighteen 50th Anniversary banners up on County Road that were three (3) years old. He asked if the banners should be taken down and whether he should order new banners. He stated $2,500 would cover the cost to take down the old banners, and design and install new banners. He also stated that City street signs were of nine different designs. Surrounding communities had updated their streets signs to include their city logo. The cost for the design and installation of one street sign was $175. It was recommended that the street signs all be done at the same time. He informed the Council that the Karth Lake gauge was installed. He stated he had gotten feedback from residents who thought the installation of the gauge meant the Council would take action again, meaning to pump or not to pump. 2003 PMP ASSESSMENT HEARING . Director Moore stated the 2003 PMP Assessment Hearing was scheduled for March 10, 2003. If the City intended to keep that date, the City must provide residents with 14 days notice.
